Brainstorm a Topic?

The research process starts with an idea. That idea leads to another idea, and another, and another. It's called brainstorming - gathering what you already know, what you want to know and what you might need to know in one spot. There's no rules and no grades for this part of the research process, just thinking! Click the image at the right or just start brainstorming here!

Focus Your Search. Find:

Your task is to find and incorporate what others have written about your topic or subject. Use the library's databases to find information to incorporate into your project. This information will be your secondary sources. Remember, your ideas matter the most!
